I know your post was a joke droid, as was matt b's call for 'BAN!!!', but overall I think that is a lot of abuse and insinuation.

As for calling for teacher - well I could PM a mod or I could contribute to the further derailment of the Barack thread but I thought I would post those quotes there so that people could see what has happened in that thread. It's interesting because I'd be surprised if what I had actually said was particularly controversial or contrarian in nature.

Fair enough. But this kind of thing gives the impression that you're oversensitive to the effects the words of others have on you, whilst ignoring the affect your words may have on others.

Anyway. Point is, you're very welcome here, and most of the inhabitants here are pretty decent once you settle in.

Sometimes it can be most annoying when everyone misunderstands you and makes a judgement based on that, but generally I find that getting annoyed only increases your chances of being misunderstood, because people are reacting to your annoyance and you're reacting to their's. Consider it a challenge to sum up your view in words we can all understand -- I'm sure it's do-able...
